New Poll - Sexism(159 posts, 19362 views) Posted: over 3 years ago by Jack_T in News
I feel like most of these need a popular manga example. I haven't seen most of these so I can't say they annoy me, its not really a trope if it doesnt exist in any popular series (and unpopular ones are unpopular for a reason).

Berserk, Gantz, and Akira. None of those contain a world that is less than horrific. ...

New Poll - Anime OP/ED(51 posts, 7895 views) Posted: over 5 years ago by Jack_T in News
Both the opening and ending tend to be the weakest parts of an anime.

This is why I don't really watch anime anymore. ...

where's the "I don't care how much ecchi there is in a series (as long as it is a good series)" option? ...

New Poll - Cheaper Paper(57 posts, 7223 views) Posted: over 5 years ago by Jack_T in News
I bought claymore because it used to be 7.99 rather than 9.99 (the usual price)

Now my favorite series like berserk or gantz are anywhere between 12.99 and 14.99

I tend to not buy much manga outside of the ones I like. Never anything new, it is way too expensive. ...

New Poll - Quitting Manga(23 posts, 2982 views) Posted: over 5 years ago by Jack_T in News
Half a decade ago I read so much manga it was crazy, it was like all I read and all I spent my free time doing.

Now I buy like three series and I barely read any scans (I read about two or three that don't come to america)

If I was asked last year my answer would have been drastically different. It also would have differed greatly the year before that.

At this point I've mostly lost interest in manga. I use this sight to keep tabs on my favorites ...

New Poll - Humans at the Top(59 posts, 4434 views) Posted: over 7 years ago by Jack_T in News
I think the only time I've ever had an issue with translations from a publisher is that some decide to censor the book. It not only affects dialogue but also the art, thus hitting it with a two punch knock out for ruining a potentially good book.

Outside of that I hardly n ...

The Situation of Manga Hosting(122 posts, 13039 views) Posted: over 7 years ago by Jack_T in News
ten dollars is the norm but the series I read are even more expensive. Berserk is now $15 a volume and Gantz is $13 so is Biomega and Future Diary is 11. I've also noticed a trend of increasing prices to use again as an example berserk was 14 another is C ...

I agree with the person who said the dialogue between tae and kurono is getting lame. Everytime something happens to them its always the same yelling back and forth even when they aren't anywhere near in earshot of each other.

I'm kind of hoping ...

I have had BU set as my homepage for the past two years. This is a great site and I hope it stays forever, I'm looking forward to when you hit 2 billion (I think it'll take less than six years)

Anyway Congratulations.

New Poll - Doujinshi(10 posts, 517 views) Posted: over 8 years ago by Jack_T in News
Same here only h doujin for me. Those are great. outside of the h stuff there arent any doujins based on my favorite series (Gantz, Berserk, Akira). If there are any doujins on those series I'd be more than happy to read them but sadly there arent any that I' ...

I still like berserk, I've been getting the manga as it's been released in the U.S. but soon they're going to catch up. I just picked up volume 32 and 33 comes out in february.

huh? I read the first volume, I didnt see anything that looked much like a seinen manga.

Anyway my three all time favorite series are all seinen and its a surprise they're not up there as well. Berserk, Gantz, and Akira.

As you can tell its no real surprise I voted f ...

Sugano just for the fact that not only does his uh... fighting skills involve him not fighting but often get him with many other women. I mean he's the weakest in the club but the strongest (spoilers) Shin gets cheated on and then dies

I store stuff on my computer but a ton of the stuff I like to listen to is from underground bands who would be impossible to locate on the internet (not that you should dl any non-famous bands albums anyway). So because of that I also have to keep a large library of C ...

I've been trying to figure out if tokyopop dropped blood sucker. but to stay on topic I refuse to read violated (censored) series (like tenjho tenge being the most extreme example i can think of).
